Our 2002 V70 Auto just turned 215K.

Transmission shifts are so smooth you only hear them - you don't feel them 95% of the time.

Engine doesn't use any oil *at all* and she starts up instantly at 0F - no preheat needed.

On a trip to Sweden at end of October we came back with 52.3 mpg - and that included a lot of stop and go on the islands and ferries around Gothenburg.

2008 2.0 diesel V50 just purchased with 194,000 miles on the clock. Engine is punchy, ride is very smooth and quiet. drives better than my 2015 1.6 V40 r-design. Is there anything to look out for on a high mileage volvo?

Smile V70 2.5d 1999

Currently on 216k. Recently replaced subframe bushes,Engine mounts being replaced today 16/5/17.Rear delta link bushes replaced 2016 @200k.
The clutch judder I'm getting intermittently will hope fully be sorted with the fitment of the new engine mounts?.Other than that she is running well returning
around an average 45 mpg.Very impressed with this diesel,it is far more economical than my previous v70 2.5 petrol version,it does seem to chomp through the front tyres though.Again great vehicle.
